Resources for New Yorkers Struggling with the COVID-19 Pandemic

TakeRoot is committed to standing with our partners and their communities as they face the coronavirus pandemic. Below the resources we created to meet the needs of organizations and people we work with.

TakeRoot’s Capacity Building and Equitable Neighborhoods practice areas have created and compiled lists of legal and financial resources available to worker cooperatives, small businesses, and nonprofits during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Equitable Neighborhoods practice area maintains this FAQ for NYCHA organizers (PDF) about how public-housing residents can get repairs and other services, pay rent, and apply for rent-reductions during the coronavirus shutdown.
